摘要:
To provide a small-sized fuel cell system capable of providing a mode having a simple constitution preventing power generation of a fuel cell in an overload state, preventing a deterioration in the fuel cell system and providing a stable output from the fuel cell in the fuel cell system constituting a power source by the fuel cell. Overload states of all of single cells constituting a fuel cell are detected and an output of the fuel cell is controlled such that when the overload state is detected, the output of the fuel cell is cut or a cell in the overload state is recovered to a normal power generating state.

A pressure regulating valve comprises a first pressure deformation part (120) receiving the pressure on the fuel demand side and deformable and a second pressure deformation part (130) so installed as to face the first pressure deformation part (120), receiving a predetermined pressure, and deformable. A first flow passage (140), a second flow passage (150), and a communication passage (160) allowing the first and second flow passages (140, 150) to communicate with each other are formed in the space between the first and second pressure deformation parts (120, 130). The pressure regulating valve further comprises a valve member (170) having a valve element (172) which has a connection part (171) extending through the communication passage (160) and connecting the first pressure deformation part (120) to the second pressure deformation part (130), installed in the connection part (171), and closing the communication passage (160) when moved to the second pressure deformation part (130) side. When the pressure on the fuel demand side is lower than a predetermined value, the valve element (172) does not close the communication passage (160). However, when the pressure on the fuel demand side is equal to or more than the predetermined value, the valve element (172) closes the communication passage (160).

摘要:
A power supply apparatus has a combined power source with power cells configured electrically independently. A switch arbitrarily changes connection paths of the power cells by selectively connecting terminals of the power cells through switching elements. A detector detects differences in electrical potentials between power cell terminals. An output detector detects a power consumption in a load and/or an output power of the power source. ON-OFF states of the switching elements are controlled by a control signal generated based on voltage signals representing detected differences in electrical potentials, power consumption, and output power. A connection status of each power cell is controlled so as to halt outputting of the power cell having the lowest output voltage if it is detected that a detected power value is equal to or lower than an output power preset based on a power generating capacity of the power source.

Hydrogen generation materials are a complex hydride which generates hydrogen upon hydrolysis, and an aqueous solution comprising water for causing the hydrolysis, and an accelerator dissolved therein for accelerating a hydrogen generation reaction. A method of hydrogen generation by a hydrogen generator comprises a first step S1 of detecting that the internal pressure of a reactor is lower than a reference pressure, and supplying the aqueous accelerator solution to the reactor; a second step S2 of dissolving the complex hydride in the aqueous accelerator solution to cause a hydrogen generation reaction; and a third step S3 of detecting that the internal pressure of the reactor is higher than the reference pressure, and stopping the supply of the aqueous accelerator solution, and repeats the flow from the first step S1 to the third step S3.

After hydrogen fed from introduction hole 22 is dispersed in a first space 15 as a first buffer part, the hydrogen is further dispersed in a first recess part 28 and a second recess part 30 as a second buffer part, which is then uniformly dispersed in individual paths 26 between block groups 25 to make the volume of hydrogen flowing in the paths 26 uniform, and is then transferred at a sufficient feed pressure into small openings 24 through the second recess part 29 for uniformly feeding hydrogen to each cell unit.

摘要:
A pressure regulating valve has a first pressure deformation portion connected to and receiving a pressure on a fuel demand side, a second pressure deformation portion opposed to the first pressure deformation portion and receiving a predetermined pressure, first and second flow passages, and a communication passage communicating the first and second flow passages to each other. A valve member has a connecting portion connecting the first and second pressure deformation portions together, and has a valve element provided at the connecting portion and configured to close the communication passage when moved toward the second pressure deformation portion. When the pressure on the fuel demand side is lower than a predetermined value, the valve element does not close the communication passage, but when the pressure on the fuel demand side is equal to or higher than the predetermined value, the valve element closes the communication passage.
